A solid guide

A solid guide for anyone looking to start a home-based trucking brokerage business. Easy to get started with a low startup cost. I highly recommend it.

Author does not understand Freight brokering.

From miscommunicated terms to outright bad information the list goes on! I do not recommend this book to anyone looking to learn about Freight brokering. terms such as truck brokering which is now illegal under Map 21 are used throughout the reading of the book. incorrect explanation of processes were abundant!
at one point talking about Freight brokering, in the next describing a motor carrier operations without really discerning between the two.
